Take your events to the next level
Gerritsen Theatre Costumes is located at the beautiful Weteringschans in the centre of Amsterdam.
Since 1878 we have been a household name in the rental and manufacture of historically correct costumes that are developed in our own workshop.
In the more than 140 years of our existence, we have built up a considerable collection that covers 3 spacious floors and covers 7000 years of costume history. With this we have decorated many a film, theater piece or party and we are still evolving.
Take your events to the next level
If you are interested, we will make an appointment and discuss the theme and all the possibilities.
Then your guests will visit us and we will ensure that they are fitted with a nicely fitting costume.
It is also possible that we come to your location to dress people. Everything to make your day enjoyable. Of course, we can also take care of any hair and make-up. Actually, almost anything is possible in consultation.
The only limits are those of your imagination.
If you would like to give your event another special cachet with the beautiful costumes of Gerritsen, call us for an appointment.
Then we will take plenty of time to come up with a tailor-made plan for your special occasion with a no-obligation quote.
Warm greetings and see you soon at Gerritsen Theatre Costumes

Styling
A true costume house has styling, of course.
This is for repairs, the manufacture of new costumes, and the tailoring of the clothing.
When someone comes to us with an idea, it is often a rough version of what they really want.
Thanks to our knowledge of art history and possibilities from the collection, we crystallize a beautiful outfit in consultation.
Wearing beautiful clothes always gives a special feeling.
It changes your attitude and gives you security.
Our mission is to send you out the door with that kind of feeling.
You have to feel comfortable in what you’re wearing, at ease and beautiful.
After his son took over the company, large parades, operas and plays were added to the repertoire and two generations later, the clientele now includes a large part of the entertainment industry, companies, photographers, stylists and private individuals.
